TEGNA seems to be cash poor. Can they afford him?

Toya Washington, did a podcast interview awhile back and she talked about being burned out and she got off the 10pm back in 2011 for part-time for her family. I remember she wanted to do just the 5pm for family reason, and left the job to be a mom with her kids and her husband schedule too. She's teaching now, but there the article and podcast to check out. https://onmilwaukee.com/articles/toyawashington https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/toya-washington-leaving-tv-news/id1690213362?i=1000615141001

It would be ideal for Hearst. Big sigh!

She getting paid $25Million and you think she will settled in on Sunday night spot? She has a contract that lets her do what she wants at $25Million. If you had that big contract would you want to do a Sunday Night Show instead of Mondays only after The President first 100 days?

Wonder if he will follow his ex-wife Sandra Ali over to CBS Detroit.

Sounds like the same comments that were sent into FTVLIVE.com about certain stories. https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2025/1/28/not-the-best-debut

I came across this. https://www.axios.com/local/chicago/2025/01/17/chuck-goudie-out-abc-7-investigations Wonder if he would jump over to WGN, WMAQ or WFLD?

KSDK 1987

WTSP 1982 WWL-TV in 1992 news stills holds up 3+ decades later.

That door been revolving for years even before the early 2000s. Stacia is headed for WKYC Channel 3 in Cleveland as Statehouse reporter. WKYC also welcomes Stacia Naquin to the 3News Team as our Columbus Statehouse reporter. Stacia is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning reporter and anchor who has spent the last eight years at WSYX in Columbus. Welcome Stacia!”

Angela Pace, apart of the fabric of Columbus Television News. From her time in the late 70s-early 90s at WCMH/NBC4 as anchor/reporter to WBNS/10TV when she joined the station in 1992. Anchor from 1993-2006 and then moved into the community service role for the station. She will leave 10TV next week after 34 years at the station.

WWL TV then- Channel 4 Eyewitness News from 30 years ago. This newscast still holds up.

With WISN 12 doing a 9pm wasn't a "Hearst Thing" ? WBAL & WCVB did a 10pm with their METV stations. I wonder if those and other Hearst stations that are doing those 9pm/10pm will follow suit?

Can anyone explain the two largest cities in Texas? Dallas-Ft.Worth #4, but Houston #6. I had to look it up, but Houston's population is bigger than Dallas. Is the Dallas market bigger than Houston because of Dallas & Ft. Worth together?

I'm shocked, because I would assume Jason Colthorp would move back to evenings. Detroit News has more about the story https://www.detroitnews.com/story/entertainment/television/2024/10/24/wdiv-welcomes-new-anchorman-to-town-after-devin-scillian-retirement/75828766007/

WALA-FOX 10-1996

How times have changed with WVUE is now in the catbird seat. Those are big changes for FOX 8.

I think he would bring the leadership CBS has wanted since the Walter Cronkite days. CBS and these cuts have been an ongoing thing since the 80s. CBS Evening News isn't NBC or ABC which is short story form newscast because people attention spans are short. The Evening News does a good job, but CBS been third since the late 80s and still struggling in resources and etc. You made some really good valid points and with this pending sale it seems CBS News still doesn't move the needle. It going to be business as usual. Brian would be great, and didn't CBS offered him the Evening News back several years ago?

Can CBS afford him with all the cuts?
